Episode Details
Back to EpisodesWTF Is Going On?! What’s behind the eye rolls..
Description
Ever feel like your daughter’s eye rolls, sighs, and door slams are her way of telling you just how much she appreciates you? Yeah… me neither.
But here’s the thing - her attitude isn’t just attitude. It’s communication. And if you know how to read the signs, you’ll see that behind the moods, the shutdowns, and the “UGH, whatever” moments, there’s something deeper happening.
In this episode, we’re decoding what’s really going on inside your teen’s brain, body, and heart - using the physiology first approach - so you can stop taking it personally and start supporting her in a way that actually works.
💡 You’ll learn:
- Why her brain flips into fight, flight, or freeze mode before she even realises it.
- How stress gets trapped in her body (and why she’s always exhausted).
- The surprising way her heart signals danger to her brain (and why connection matters more than ever).
- One simple shift you can make today to break the cycle of conflict and actually get through to her
And if you’re thinking, Okay, but I need more than a podcast episode, I’ve got you.
If today's episode landed for you, if you heard something that made you think yes, that's my daughter, that's exactly what's going on, then I want you to know there's a place where we go deeper on all of this together. It's called WTF - What's The Feeling - and it's my membership for mums who are ready to stop firefighting and start actually understanding what's going on. You'll find the link here. Come and have a look. I think you'll feel right at home.
